Gardner grew fast, and fast growth means fill soil. We see ten-year-old homes out here settling like they're forty. It isn't bad building so much as dirt that never finished compacting.

Frequently Asked Questions — Basement Waterproofing in Gardner
Why do Gardner basements leak?
The Johnson County clay holds water against the foundation and pushes it at the walls after every storm. On the newer Gardner homes, settling on fill can open gaps and cracks where water then gets in, and grading around fresh subdivisions often slopes water back toward the house.
What waterproofing fix works for a Gardner home?
For most homes it's an interior perimeter drain tied to a sump pump, collecting water at the floor-wall joint and pumping it out. Individual cracks get epoxy or polyurethane injection. We determine the right setup during the free inspection.
Should I add a battery backup to the sump pump?
We recommend it. The spring storms that flood basements are the same ones that cut the power, and a pump without electricity does nothing. A battery backup keeps it running through the outage, which is exactly when you need it.
How much does basement waterproofing cost in Gardner?
A single crack injection is relatively low cost, while a full interior drain and sump system runs higher depending on the basement size. The inspection and written estimate are free, and we offer financing if you'd like to spread it out.
